I don't know what it says about me -but I want everything on the list. LOL Great job!I am addicted to mariage freres and will be in Paris next week. I've never tried that Boudda Bleu but will definitely check it out!

Okay...this is now *my* Christmas list...I'm sure the Addidas and the cap come in larger sizes so they're staying on the list! Sending this one around to family & friends as the perfect hint-hint...you're the best little Elffette Lisa!xoxox J~

Okay, you've obviously been reading my mind! For example: I just bought "Wildwood" for my son, and he got a pair of Gazelles the other day. I've been wanting the Oberto Gili book for a while--hmmm. I'll be adding "The Eustace Diamond" to my Kindle in a few minutes. Thank you for all of these fantastic recommendations!

I am going crosseyed with all of the gift lists online but yours gets me out of the gift-giving doldrums! I just finished Alexandra Fuller's book (LOVE!) and have put Cooking with Fernet Branca on my hold list at the library. Thanks for the inspirations, Cynthia

i love that you recommended so many books! the mysterious benedict society is a good set. i've read the first one and my children enjoy it, too. also i appreciate that you share things you already own and recommend. thanks!
